Sascha: The attempt to ban parliament's right to pass directed-spending bills—bills that contain provisions specifically funding the favorite projects of some powerful politicians—is antidemocratic. Our nation's constitution requires that money be drawn from our treasury only when so stipulated by laws passed by parliament, the branch of government most directly representative of the citizens.This requirement is based on the belief that exercising the power to spend public resources involves the ultimate exercise of state authority and that therefore_________.
Which of the following most logically completes Sascha's argument?
designating funding specifically for the favorite projects of some powerful politicians should be considered antidemocratic
the right to exercise such a power should belong exclusively to the branch of government most directly representative of the citizens
exercising the power to spend public resources is in most cases—but not all—protected by the constitution
modifications to any spending bills should be considered expenditures authorized by law
only officials who are motivated by concerns for reelection should retain that power
因为宪法要求只有国会(市民的直接代表)通过的法律明确要求,钱才能从国库中提取。这又是因为行使公众资源的权利涉及行使到州的权利,因此
应该在市民的直接代表和行使州的权利之间搭桥

推理类型:因果推理
前提:实施花费公共资源的权力包括国家权力的行使
结论:只有当议会(最代表公民的政府部门)通过法律之后,国库才可以被花费
题目类型:加强
B:正确:实施这种权力应该完全属于最代表民众的政府部门(确立因果联系:信念认为花钱涉及根本权力,且只有议会才有权力,所以宪法要求只有议会通过法律之后,才可以花钱)
A重复文章第一句话,这句话是general的结论。但这道题不是要求总结general的观点,而是要求解释why exercising the power to spend public resources involves the ultimate exercise of state authority
B翻译:只有直接代表citizen的government能够行使这项权力
based on the belief that。。。重述了这个requirement。
不应该禁止,因为议会好,禁止了不民主,因为议会代表了民主
只有B和民主建立了联系
